"This is Tracy by the way, I'll start off by saying everything went very well from start to finish . I will admit the price was pretty steep but they probably had to do alot of work on my situation. As far as the care goes they went above and beyond and the anesthesia administration was perfect ! I woke up feeling happy after surgery and I have never in my life woke up happy usually I cry after anesthesia or feel real sad but not there I didn't. The Dr mcwilihan was excellent. I only have a little pain today it's much better then before I had surgery . He knew exactly what to do and did it carefully . If I had another surgery I would ask for him to do it if possible because I was scared to death before hand but after was so relieved he knew what he was doing. And my situation isn't a normal one lol I had a compaction of my wisdom tooth turned side ways growing inside the tooth beside it and infection and bone compaction .. not something I would consider normal because every other dentist I went to ... would turn me away as soon as they seen the xray but for the grace of God he didn't turn me away . And now I don't have the pressure pain I dealt with for months and burning nerve pain . That part is gone and I can tell and I will forever be thankful for him 🙏 ❤️. And would hope if I have another issue he would help me again. Great place . Excellent surgeon for complicated situations."

"Went back about a month after a tooth extraction and implant. Dr Frederick did an excellent job. it was done on a Friday and I flew to South Africa the following Wednesday. I did exactly what he and the nurses told me as far as cleaning. I had no problems! Absolutely the best and his nurses too!!! Highly recommend!!!!"

"Dr. Frederick did an amazing job on my extraction! All of the ladies in the office and the nurses were SO kind. I was in and out within an hour. I also really appreciate Dr. Frederick listening to my concerns about my past reactions to sedation (when I had my wisdom teeth out years ago). With the info I gave him, he changed some medications for me and my recovery has been so much smoother this go around. Highly recommend!Also, Dr. McIlwain removed my wisdom teeth years ago and he was just as wonderful!"
